Direct Extension Dial Features
7-13

green light goes off and Direct Extension Dial is off. Any calls being answered by the system
continue to hear the recorded message and are prompted to enter a destination extension.
Direct Extension Dial Delay (#112)
7
Use this feature to specify the number of times (0–9) an incoming call should ring before it is
answered by the Direct Extension Dial feature.
Considerations
7
■
This feature works independently of Line Ringing, which determines how an outside call rings
at the extension—immediately, after a 20 second delay, or not at all. Direct Extension Dial
Delay specifies the number of rings a caller hears before the system answers the call.
■
If you use Caller ID, make sure Direct Extension Dial Delay is set to 2 rings or more to
ensure that Caller ID information is captured.
■
If you use T1 lines with Direct Inward Dialing (DID) that are not administered for Direct
Inward Dialing (DID) in PARTNER ACS R6.0 PC Administration, set the number of rings to 1
ring or more.
